Start the engines and (after an appropriate warm-up period and with shifts in neutral) increase their
speeds to the boat's normal cruising RPM. (Both tachometers must be properly calibrated.) Set the
coarse adjustment switch to the proper position described on it's label. Remove the stop-plug (at the
8-o'clock position on the rear of the case for most) and insert a 5/16" allen wrench into the "fine
adjustment" trumpet, rotating it CW or CCW as necessary to center the synchronizer.
